PRISM Build Challenge is a multidisciplinary innovation challenge designed for students only who are builders, designers, engineers, strategists, researchers, and problem-solvers.

You don't have to be a programmer to participate.

PRISM brings together 10 different challenge themes, giving participants the freedom to choose a problem aligned with their skills and interests. Participants are encouraged to transform an idea into a practical, impactful, and well-presented solution.

Whether you are designing a software product, rethinking a building, optimizing logistics, developing a mechanical solution, creating a new product, or solving a social challenge — PRISM is your platform to build it.

PRISM is built around real-world innovation across technology, business, industry, and infrastructure. Choose the track that best aligns with the problem you want to solve and the impact you want to create.

Build intelligent solutions that leverage AI, machine learning, automation, prediction, reasoning, or intelligent decision-making to solve real-world problems.

Transform complex and large-scale data into actionable intelligence through cloud computing, analytics, data platforms, visualization, and scalable information systems.

Create digital products, applications, platforms, or software systems that transform how businesses, organizations, and individuals work, communicate, and operate.

Develop technology-driven solutions that address business growth, strategy, operations, customer needs, market opportunities, and organizational challenges.

Reimagine manufacturing and industrial environments through automation, smart systems, robotics, optimization, digital twins, predictive technologies, and connected operations.

Design solutions that make workflows smarter, faster, and more efficient by improving resource utilization, process management, project execution, workforce productivity, and operational performance.

Build innovative technologies that transform property and real-estate operations, including property management, construction, transactions, asset management, smart buildings, and real-estate services.

Innovate in connectivity, telecommunications, networking, digital infrastructure, IoT, communication systems, and next-generation technologies that enable a more connected world.

Develop solutions that improve pharmaceutical operations, pharmacy management, inventory visibility, distribution, procurement, compliance, forecasting, and end-to-end supply-chain efficiency.

Think beyond conventional categories. Build ambitious solutions that address meaningful real-world problems and demonstrate exceptional innovation, scalability, feasibility, and potential for measurable impact.

Your submission can take many forms, including:

• AI/ML or intelligent systems

• Data analytics or cloud platforms

• Web or software applications

• Mobile applications

• Business or strategic technology solutions

• Automation systems

• Industrial or manufacturing technologies

• Productivity and workflow platforms

• PropTech solutions

• Telecommunications or connected-infrastructure concepts

• Pharmaceutical or supply-chain solutions

• Digital transformation platforms

• Physical or engineering prototypes

• Research-backed solutions

• Technology-enabled business models

• Or any other innovative solution aligned with your selected track

Think beyond the obvious. Build for a real problem. Demonstrate real value.

PRISM is not about building the most complicated technology. It is about identifying a meaningful challenge, developing a thoughtful solution, and demonstrating how your idea can create measurable real-world impact.
